DigitalNow Quad DVB-T Tuner Card and Linux, it is working Options

[renura]

Hi Guys,

We have a couple of reports from Linux users about having the Quad DVB-T tuner card working under Linux.

So, if any one who has got the card and wants to try under Linux, please let us know how it goes.

You will need to download this

Hi everyone,

Have dedicated today to try and solve the other issue I am having with the remote. "themagicpudding's" post on the remote is correct, however I am having this other issue where the remote is being detected as a keyboard. So even when there is no lirc installed, you still get number presses and up, down, left and right working in a terminal.

So it all points to this:

As you can see the problem, all the tuner's ir units are being used as a keyboard. This would explain the 4 x repeats in the terminal.

Any suggestions?
